Why Santa Fe Businesses Choose Us
Why Choose Kraft Corrugated
Kraft Corrugated — The Original Sustainable Shipping Material for Natural Brand Positioning
Kraft corrugated is the material from which the modern packaging industry was built. The natural brown kraft liner — unbleached, high-strength wood fiber — provides the structural backbone of corrugated board while communicating an authentic, unprocessed aesthetic that aligns naturally with sustainable, artisan, and natural brand positioning. Standard kraft corrugated is the most economical corrugated specification for any application.
Custom-printed kraft corrugated transforms standard shipping boxes into branded brand experiences without the cost premium of white liner. Bold single or two-color print over natural kraft creates an authentic, craft aesthetic that resonates with consumers who value honest, unpretentious brand communication.
Printing on Kraft Corrugated
Kraft corrugated prints most effectively with bold, simple designs — strong logos, clear typography, and limited color palettes that work with rather than against the natural brown base. Single-color printing in black, white, or a brand-specific color over natural kraft creates a clean, authentic aesthetic at minimum cost. Two-color printing expands design possibilities. Full CMYK printing on kraft requires design awareness of how colors shift on the warm brown base.
Kraft Corrugated for Sustainable Brand Communication
Kraft corrugated is inherently the most sustainable standard corrugated option — it uses minimal processing, maintains the highest fiber strength without bleaching, and communicates sustainability through its unprocessed appearance. For brands whose packaging should communicate environmental responsibility at a glance, kraft corrugated does this without requiring any printed sustainability claim.
